Bellator MMA stages a historic show in Paris this Saturday, October 10, as the leading mixed martial arts promotion becomes the first to hold a major MMA event in France.

Bellator Paris, which takes place at the Accor Arena, features a card stacked with some of the world’s top mixed martial artists, including the highly anticipated bout between Michael “Venom” Page and Ross “The Hitman” Houston, as well as a heavyweight clash between Frenchman Cheick Kongo and the USA’s Tim Johnson. Kongo, who is from Paris, will be fighting in front of a home crowd at the top of the card, with a limited number of fans being allowed in attendance on Saturday night.

The historic occasion will be broadcast in its entirety live in the UK and Ireland, from 4:30 p.m. (BST) until 10 p.m. on BBC iPlayer in the UK and on Bellator MMA’s YouTube Channel in Ireland, and then from 10 p.m. on Channel 5 in the UK and Virgin Media Sport in Ireland. Bellator MMA announced the ground-breaking deal with the BBC earlier this week, which will see live MMA broadcast on the BBC for the very first time.
